Short Course Meters
At Mona Plummer pool ASU
Just finalized the dates...working on adding in a few twists like a 4k, a coaches challenge, etc.
Also, looking into negotiating some things like discounted golf, zoo tickets, etc. for folks that may be bringing along family that would prefer not to hang out at a pool all weekend.
Maybe you could suggest the meet be 11/14 and 11/15 with the open water 11/16. Nothing quite like trying to do nine events with a 4k in the middle of it. I would personally rather do the 4k after the meet--in case anybody's asking. Although DCB is putting on a 2.4 mile 2 weeks before IM Arizona (11/9)--not sure why they are not doing it on 11/16. Either way tempe town lake will be chilly that time of year--will there be a non-wetsuit division for those with cryptochordism? I've always preferred October for the SDM meet and open water races as the water and weather is nicer.
Kurt...you can now spread your misery over 3 full days! The 800/1500 are Friday (6pm start), the 4k will be the first event Saturday morning, then you can "warm down" with the 400 free Sunday morning!
As for the Tempe Lake swim hosted by Tribe/Mark Gill on the 9th, that was set up early on to allow the people entered in the Arizona Ironman a swim a few weeks before the "main event".
